Google search "postpartum fitness", and you'll be bombarded with the pressure of tips, quick fixes, and health hacks that leave us feeling less than enough because we're not bouncing back fast enough. 

 But God didn’t design your body to “bounce back.” He created it to heal, restore, and grow stronger. In this episode, we’re busting 7 postpartum training myths that Christian moms are often told—and replacing them with hope-filled, body-wise truths rooted in science and compassion.

You'll learn ... 

✅ The truth about 6-week clearance (and why healing doesn’t follow a calendar)
 ✅ Why cardio + weight loss shouldn’t be your first step—and what to do instead
 ✅ How body composition impacts long-term health (not just how you look)
 ✅ What Scripture and science both affirm about rest, restoration, and movement
 ✅ Specific strength strategies for postpartum recovery—no shame, no hustle
